Largely because they're not guilty. Prosecutors conspire frequently to keep evidence from defense, pay for testimony, and utilize the testimony of witnesses known to be unreliable. The image the justice system portrays is often quite different from what actually happens. Prosecutors are not interested in the truth, they are interested in how to get the case off their docket with something better than a not guilty. The incentives between politicians, judges, and prosecutors is perverse. I've heard with my own ears a prosecutor suggest to a judge that a person collect illegal gambling and drugs debts to a pay a fine. It's completely ridiculous the absolutely lack of ethics these people have. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Marshall,_Jr http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Marshall,_Jr. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Milgaard http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Milgaard Read Donald and David's story, it's crazy the lengths they went to to keep innocent men in prison. In my case the police claimed they showed up an hour before what they accused me of was reported. Didn't go so well for them after that. The whole system is full of liars and thieves dressed in fancy titles.
